Aball of mass 0.250 kg and a velocity of + 5.00 m/s collides head-on with a ball of mass 0.800 kg that is initially at rest. no external forces act on the balls. after the collision, the velocity of the ball which was originally at rest is + 2.38 m/s. what is the velocity of the 0.250 kg ball?

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of ball 1,

Initial speed of ball 1,

Mass of ball 2,

Initial speed of ball 2, (at rest)

After the collision,

Final speed of ball 2,

Let is the final speed of ball 1.

Initial momentum of the system is :

Final momentum of the system is :

According the law of conservation of linear momentum :

initial momentum = final momentum

So, the final velocity of ball 1 is (-2.616)m/s.

where is the photo and the answer choices?

force required to detach it is given by

charges are taken to be fundamental charge

now we have

so above is the minimum distance at which it will detach
